For the reaction, Cl2 + 2KBr --> 2KCl + Br2, how many moles of potassium chloride, KCl, are produced from 102g of potassium bromide, KBr (MM: 119.002 g/mol)?(answer has 3 decimal places)

Sagot :

Solution :

From the balanced chemical equation, we can say that 1 moles of KBr will produce 1 moles of KCl .

Moles of KBr in 102 g of potassium bromide.

n = 102/119.002

n = 0.86 mole.

So, number of miles of KCl produced are also 0.86 mole.

Mass of KCl produced :

[tex]m = 0.86 \times Molar \ mass \ of \ KCl\\\\m = 0.86 \times 74.5 \ gram \\\\m = 64.07\ gram[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.
